Life is an elevator
going up and down
higher toward a better view
or lower to what you want to escape
we choose where we go
but not whether we go
stopping our lives for other peoples stories
stories we don't understand
as people get off
to stop their lives
and get back on later
stop after stop
as strangers come in
and friends leave
till we get off
and in to another elevator shaft.
Lenin (model)
Although there have been millions of people throughout history, Vladimir Lenin is one who had a significant effect. Vladimir Lenin was born to a rich family in Russia. He joined politics and created an idea that still affects the world today: communism. Lenin was one of 6 children, Anna , Alexander,and Vladimir, Olga ,Dmytri and Marya. Vladimir spent most of his time growing up with his sisters and was also a good student. He eventually tutored them in Latin. Vladimir's mother died when he was 16. at the time, Alexander was going to school in St Petersburg and he was becoming more involved with overthrowing the tzar. Unfortunately, this led to him and the rest of the revolutionaries getting executed. .After his brothers death, Vladimir began meeting with a secret "revolutionary cell' that aroused protests around the university he was attending. Lenin was pegged as the leader, expelled; and ordered to be under police surveillance. During this period he started to study Marxism which greatly influenced his ideas. In communism, Lenin hoped to abolish inequality as he saw in monarchy and capitalism. The idea was that if all products and positions are similar, then no one has better products or worse pay. In the communist state governments are in charge of all trade and productions; usually they assign jobs to families. Many people criticised communism, saying it would stunt progress but through the February and October Revolutions it won over Russia. After conquering Russia communism spread to China, Korea ,and much of Southeast, leading to the cold war,.Which was really a series of wars including the Korean war and the Vietnam war and also t the "nuclear arms race." Today, most countries disagree with the ideas of communism; although the communist state still includes: China, Cuba, and North Korea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Lenin
